Self-Propelled Swimming of a Flexible Propulsor Actuated by a Distributed Active Moment
The self-propelled swimming of a flexible propulsor is numerically investigated by using fluid-structure interaction simulations. A distributed active moment mimicking the muscle actuation in fish is used to drive the self-propulsion. The active moment imposed on the body of the swimmer takes the fo...
